Cook The Book: Tuna And Crab Wraps
- 1 teaspoon mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon wasabi paste
- 1 or 2 drops sesame oil
- 1 soft flour tortilla
- 1/2 carrot, peeled and cut into matchsticks to give 1/2 cup
- 1/4 cucumber, halved lengthwise, seeded and cut into matchsticks to give 1/2 cup
- 3 ounces tuna, sliced into 1/16-by-3/4-inch rectangles
- 1/2 cup white crabmeat
- 1 teaspoon mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon wasabi paste
- 1 or 2 drops sesame oil
- 1 soft flour tortilla
- 1/2 avocado
- 1/4 cup finely shredded iceberg lettuce
- Squeeze of lemon juice
- Whisk together the mayonnaise, wasabi, and sesame oil in a small bowl, and paint the tortilla on one side with this mixture.
- Arrange a row of carrots horizontally 3/4 inch to 1 /14 inches up from the bottom of the tortilla you have in front of you.
- Then arrange the cucumber on top of the carrot in the same way, or as best you can, as it may slip down a little.
- Top with slices of tuna, also laying them horizontally-this makes it easy to wrap.
- Roll up the wrap as tightly as you can, starting from bottom. You want to end up with a fat Cuban cigar-like roll. Cut across rolled wrap diagonally to make 3 pieces.
- Put the crabmeat into a bowl; add the mayonnaise, wasabi paste, and oil; stir to mix.
- Lay the tortilla in front of you and pout the crabmeat in a line horizontally about 1 inch up from bottom of wrap.
- Take the avocado half still with skin and scoop out the flesh in 1/2-teaspoon curls, laying these on top of the line of crabmeat.
- Sprinkle over the lettuce in a neat line also, and then spritz with lemon juice.
- Roll up tightly from bottom to form a fat cigarlike roll; slice on an angle into 3 pieces.
